This episode focuses on the types of title defects that commonly appear during a search and how they are resolved before closing. We walk through issues such as open mortgages, liens, missing satisfactions, chain of title breaks, and estate-related matters — and explain the behind-the-scenes work involved in obtaining documentation, reviewing court records, coordinating with prior lenders and title companies, and securing affidavits when necessary to ensure clear, insurable title transfers to the buyer.
